Tax Notes has published an article by David Burton and Olivier De Moor, partner and associate, respectively, in the tax practice at Akin Gump, on the Supreme Court’s decision in Hall v. United States.

The case in question looks at whether tax liabilities are dischargeable in a bankruptcy proceeding. In “Supreme Court in Hall Complicates Bankruptcy Tax Planning,” Burton and De Moor conclude that financially troubled individuals or family farms should opt for chapter 7 or 11 bankruptcy protection “if they have post-petition taxes they want to have discharged.”
